'19 CA QB JT Daniels (Georgia commit)

[GetEmVols]

If I was Dabo, I wouldn’t leave Clemson simply because I’d built my own dynasty at Clemson. What would be said if he went to Bama and didn’t fill Saban’s shoes to their expectations? Nope. Wouldn’t touch it.

Exactly my point. They won’t replace Saban with a national championship coach unless urban Meyer comes back or something ridiculous.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Yeah I had to do a doubletake on that one. Could not belive how bad he missed on that throw.

You can tell even the camera man could see it clear as day. The guy wasn't expecting him to throw it to a guy in quadruple coverage, he was tracking the receiver in the middle of the endzone. Cannot wait for the JG era to be over.

 

[Hyperion]

That’s why in the end I think he’ll say no. They’ll be ready to fire him at the first sign of trouble.

Especially when you consider that there's some bitterness down there about him preventing Alabama from winning it all. Combine that with lackluster results and they'd be thrilled to can him. I'm sure Dabo would love to go back from a sentimental perspective, but there's no way any sane person would leave what he's built.

 

[BruinVol]

Sounds right. Fingers crossed it passes.

Seems all but a formality that it will fail and then be passed in Jan. That’s what most that have followed the process closely say is a lock to happen

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I hate to say it but you all are insane if you don't think Pruitt doesn't go to Alabama when they offer, post Saban.

I've literally went from wishing Saban would hang it up, to hoping he sticks around long enough for CJP to get us "back." And then fingers crossed the next AD hires the right guy.

But yeah.... Alabama kid, transferred to play at Alabama, cut his teeth coaching in/at Alabama. And sadly, it's just so much easier there. Better local talent and in Alabama they treasure football and a winning culture, whereas a lot of people around Tennessee resent the football program and don't care about their success as much. I know that to be true becaue MIT Beaver told me.

Would work out great if Ainsley takes over if Pruitt happens to leave

 

[DarkAvenger]

Would anyone put it past bama to try and throw the national treasure at Urban and buy him from USC?

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Aight JT time to hop on board. I’m an impatient person. We haven’t had a commit in DAYS. It’s so cruel.

Won’t ever make it to Pruitt. It’s Dabo’s job.

I think it depends on several factors. Are we offering competitive or better compensation? What is the state of our program at that time? How satisfied is Jeremy Pruitt with living here and his contentment with the job?

If UT is doing well on the field, he's well paid and he's happy with life in general then why would you leave? This is an elite job, easily one of the best in the country. You don't just leave it if things are going well.

Nobody should want to be the guy to follow Nick Saban. The situation here might be far more conducive to success than dealing with the pressure of being the guy to follow a legend. You can win here just as big as you can at Alabama.

 

[Dudleys87]

Won’t ever make it to Pruitt. It’s Dabo’s job.

It will if he says no.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Following Saban is a Lose Lose situation. Plus you have to live in the Trailer Park, Inbreeding, Meth using state of Alabama.

Who would want to be the guy who had to follow Saban? Couldn’t be me.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

It will if he says no.

Dabo has hinted that he will take the Bama job once it opens.

I don't understand why he would leave his cult followers in Clemson, especially with how weak the ACC is, but his words/contract suggests he will.

 

[Wickman]

It will if he says no.

Dabo’s dream job. He won’t say no.

Ehh, there’s always a change but Clemson will be ready to match whatever the pay is from Bama. They won’t just let him walk.

 

[Dudleys87]

Dabo’s dream job. He won’t say no.

We’ll see.
He’d be absolutely crazy to follow Saban but someone has to do it.

 

[BruinVol]

I’d bet a years salary the next coach at Bama is either Dabo or Pruitt

 

[Weezer]

Exactly my point. They won’t replace Saban with a national championship coach unless urban Meyer comes back or something ridiculous.

So you're saying it could be Kirby.

He ain't winning a NC.

 

[Dudleys87]

It’ll have to be a proven winner and Pruitt doesent fit that bill yet.

Dabo
Riley
Day

 

[SweetasSoda]

I wondered how long it would be until this started with recruiting going well.

 

[LotteryPick]

It will if he says no.

lol he’s not saying no. From Bama, played for Bama, coached multiple positions for Bama, zero left to prove at Clemson and Bama will not let him say with the amount of money they’d be willing to offer.

Tennessee cares as much about football as does Alabama
